no enforcer  :'(   
Take your pick between the evolution and storm . 
If i was configuring both i would choose the following  ... 
Evolution  -  i would ask them to fit the 6.6 vacs as they are working well /long lasting and cheap to replace these days .
I think 600psi is enough .
I would leave out the internal inline heaters asthey are only 2000w and add weight and add 400extra to cost . I would keep the in-tank immersion heater for sure ( works great ) . at some stage if you want  get an external inline 3000w  ( the powerflite heater from amteck uk is good value @ 500 ) 
The Storm  ...  i would pick 600psi , 6.6 vacs  ...    add the external magma heater ( you get 100 off it when ordered with a storm )

So My evolution , would be about 2500+vat  ( or about 3000 if you buy external heater ) and storm ends up the same same about 3k .
If your just starting off and not doing large areas  ... the smaller miniflex might be an good option also if you plan to bring the machine upstairs .

one thing i forgot , the evolution will be a two cord machine , so the immersion cant be on at the same time as the machine .    On the enforcer they add a third cord outlet to get around this . 
But i would still go the external heater route with the evolution , and keep the immersion .
The enforcer might look big but its easy to handle  , its probably easier to put into the van than an evolution .
Like i said none of the big ones  are going upstairs easy .

Hi Kevin

Alltec have great customer service been dealing with Alltec for many years.

Just bought the miniflex from CleanSmart and also have good customer service.

Best to give Chris & Kerry at Alltec or Matt at CleanSmart a call..

Matt did a video call to show me the miniflex in detail to save me driving over there..

Go with John`s spec`s  if you can.
